Welcome

​“A school needs to be a place for all children not based on the idea that they’re all the same, but that they’re all different.” Loris Malaguzzi

Welcome to Creative Kids Learning Center. Thank you for visiting our website. Please take a few moments and peruse our website to learn about us. Valuable information about our preschool can be found on our various pages.

Creative Kids Learning Center provides a progressive approach to early childhood education in a small, cozy and safe environment. We support developmentally appropriate practices in our play-based curriculum for children ages 2-5. Our unique program allows children to explore and participate at their own pace. We recognize that each child has individualized talents, learning styles and personalities which we address during individual, small group and large group activities. Our highly qualified teachers and staff are committed to working within each child’s comfort zone to optimize developmental success.

﻿About Me﻿

My name is Miss Sheri and I've been happily married to Mr. Ben for more than 20 years. We have two beautiful daughters and reside in the Sachem School District.

Since 1995, I have worked in the field of education with the majority of my career spent with early childhood students. My experiences vary from classroom teacher, early intervention provider (ages birth through 3), special education itinerant teacher (ages 3 through 5), home instruction tutor, and adjunct lecturer in the Child Study Department at St. Joseph's College in Patchogue. I hold a Master's Degree in Special Education and a Professional Diploma in School District Administration. My NYS certifications include Special Education PreK-12, Elementary Education PreK-6, and Secondary English 7-12.

My vision for Creative Kids Center is simple...a safe, nurturing, educational environment where children play to learn. Their days with us consist of structured and unstructured developmentally appropriate activities to enhance their unique talents and individual personalities. We provide a stress-free, anxiety-free and pressure-free zone for exploration and enrichment. Messy hands and big smiles greet parents at pick-up time. And they look forward to coming back again tomorrow!

Parent communication is an important aspect of our program. We realize that young children cannot always adequately express the events of their day. Parents are kept well-informed via class newsletters, blog posts, and Facebook posts. Of course, your family's privacy is important to us and we will never post pictures of your children on social media sites without your written permission.

We look forward to supporting the community where we live, work, and play! I hope you will consider joining us on this journey and allow us to provide your most precious little people with an affordable, high quality early education experience.
